Next, we will go to the Tauese P. F. Sunia Ocean Center. Leaving the museum, turn left on the main road and head back toward Sadie’s by the Sea.

The Tauese P .F. Sunia Ocean Center is located near the Port Authority Wharf and right next to Sadie’s, in Utulei.

The Ocean Center provides visitors and residents with opportunity to learn about the natural and cultural resources of American Samoa. The state-of-the-art facility features educational exhibits and interactive learning tools to promote ocean awareness and encourage good marine stewardship.

The exhibits are amazing. If you have any thoughts of doing a little snorkeling or scuba diving, you will want to see this first. You will want to ask questions about when and where to do your ocean exploring.

This center is sponsored by NOAA National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa. Learn more at this link.

The Ocean Center is open to the public from Monday-Friday 9am-4pm and Saturday 9am-12pm.
